Accelerated 3D (openGL) requires appropriate hardware like an
Nvidia or ATI video card. Other chipsets will work but not as
well. If your distribution has the drivers available in a
package manager then try to install that way. 

As for KDE and Gnome, as long as you don't automatically login
to the desktop and you start with a login screen you'll be able
to choose your session before logging in and choose KDE or
Gnome. You may have to make sure it's installed. 

Name your distro and you'll get pointed in the right direction.
